Slide the rows.
Find the picture.

Shiftgram is a calm picture-logic puzzle. Every board hides a little pixel picture whose rows and columns have been slid out of place. Slide them back until each number clue matches, and the picture comes to life in full colour.

Free to play, with optional in-app purchases.

par is 2

Drag a row sideways. Tiles that leave one side come back on the other. On a keyboard, tab to a row and use the arrow keys.

One idea, a world of pictures

If you have played a nonogram, you already know half of it. Instead of shading squares, you move the ones that are already there.

  1. Slide a line

    Drag a whole row left or right, or a column up or down. Tiles wrap around the edge, so nothing ever falls off the board.

  2. Match the clues

    Numbers along each edge say how many tiles sit together in that line. When a line matches, its clue turns gold.

  3. Reveal the picture

    When every clue is gold, the tiles sweep into colour and a new picture lands in your Album.

Inside the game

Big, friendly tiles, clear clues and nothing in the way of the puzzle.

Every move counts. Each level has a move target. Solve it in that many moves to earn three stars.
A winding road of levels. Picnic Basket leads into Animal Park, with new ideas like column slides and locked lines along the way, and more regions on the way.
Pictures worth solving. Burgers, teapots, foxes and owls, each drawn tile by tile.
Fill your Album. Every solved picture is kept. Replay any of them for more stars, or share one with a friend.
A friendly weekly League. Win levels to earn points against up to 30 players at your level. The top seven move up each Monday.

Pictures to uncover

Here are a dozen of them. The rest you will have to slide out yourself.

Levels start on a gentle 4×4 board and grow bigger as you go. Each picture has exactly one answer, so a careful eye always gets there. New levels and pictures arrive in updates.

Remix Rush, Star Sweep and double-coin weekends add a small twist to Friday through Sunday.

Questions

Is Shiftgram free?

Yes. The game is free to download and every level can be finished without paying. Coins, boosters and a one-time Remove ads purchase are optional.

Are there ads?

A short full-screen ad can appear between levels from level 16, never after a lost level and never more often than every 90 seconds of play. Videos that give rewards only play when you tap to watch one. Remove ads turns off the full-screen ads for good.

Do I need to know nonograms?

No. The first ten levels only use row slides and walk you through reading the clues one idea at a time. Column slides and locked lines arrive later, each with its own short tip.

What if I get stuck?

Every level has exactly one picture. Peek shows the finished picture for three seconds, and Hint slide points to the next best move. If you have drifted off course, Hint can take you back on track first.

Will my progress move to a new phone?

Your game is saved on your phone. If you sign in with Apple or Google, a copy is kept online and comes back when you sign in on a new phone.

What do other players see in Leagues?

Only your generated name, the Album picture you chose as your avatar, your points, tier and rank. Never your real name, email or photo. The Shiftgram privacy policy has the details.

How do I delete my account?

In the game, go to Settings > Backup and account > Delete account. This removes your sign-in, online save and League profile, and the game on your phone stays. No longer have the game? Email support@novvot.com with the subject "Delete my Shiftgram account". Full steps are on the delete account page.
